Does anyone else nickname their pets? Jimmy and I get kind of ridiculous with this habit. For example, we call Lola “Reebs” more than we call her Lola. That’s another post for another day, though 😉
Below are the nicknames we’ve come up with for Malcolm… so far.
- Mal
- Malc
- Malkie
- Mallard Duck
- Melchizedek
- Planet Head
I should probably explain the last one. When Malcolm is in play mode, his pupils dilate and his eyes look really round. One night, Jimmy and I agreed that even Malcolm’s head seems more round when he’s playing.
Malcolm looked at us and Jimmy was like “If your head was any more round, you’d be a planet.” Now when Malcolm is playing, we just call him Planet Head.
Hahaha – me have nicknames for pets? Naaa. Brandy — b-rand; B-hud; Hudson; toppy… that’s all I can think of right now for her.
Reggie ~ reginator; peshy; handsome boy
Lily – guffy
Felix- Fe, Fe Fe; feefinator; feezleton
You are the queen of nick naming pets! Remember Eddie was just Roosevelt?! LOL.
As you know, we nickname every pet here. There is no limit to the amount of nicknames one can make up for their animals 😉
Yeeees! Bhud2k6!!!
Nicknames for pets are the best. Malcolm is so cute! I love all his nicknames. We call Rue Ruester more than we call her Rue probably. And Kiki is Keeks. 🙂
Haha I love Kiki and Rue’s nicknames! So funny that you call Rue Ruester more than Rue! We’re the same with our fur babies 🙂
Oh goodness, YES! Oreo has so many nicknames! He is called “Oars” probably more than he is called Oreo, haha! Though, he has a plethora of other nicknames we call him as well just depending on what’s going on. He probably hears his actual name like a handful of times a week because we call him everything else, haha!
Malcolm is such a cutie! Love the story behind his Planet Head nickname!
I love Oars for Oreo, haha! So cute! Jimmy and I are the same with Lola! We pretty much only refer to her as Lola when we are with other people. I’m glad we’re not the only ones 😉
So my gray cat – Stitchy – has absolutely no nicknames.
Highstreet, on the other hand? We call him: Fuzzy Meatball, Fuzzy Britches, Bubba (which is what we typically call him), Bubsy, and Bubby-bubbs. Ha ha!!!
Hahaha! That’s hilarious that Stitchy has no nicknames and Highstreet has so many!
I call my cat Sterling, bandit and I call my other cat Sebastian, the Sheriff =P They are named according to character.
Haha that is epic! Love it!
Ahhahaha planet head is the best. I call my cat “cabecita” sometimes because his head is small and looks funny on his body.
Hahahaha! Love it!
I love this! I call them “my” dogs even though they’re at my mom’s house, but I call Colby “Colby Rolby” and Amigo “Migo”, “Migo Baby”, or “Rittle Baby Migo”. And apparently when I talk in a sing songy voice, all the “r” sounds come out….hahaha
Haha that’s adorable! I know what you mean about the “r” sounds!
I miss your blog, Kylie! Hope all is well with you 🙂
